SUBJECT:
COOPER NUCLEAR STATION - NRC INITIAL OPERATOR LICENSING
EXAMINATION APPROVAL 05000298/2014301
Dear Mr. Limpias:
The purpose of this letter is to confirm the final arrangements for the upcoming operator
licensing examinations at the Cooper Nuclear Station.
The NRC has completed its review of the operator license applications submitted in connection
with this examination and separately provided a list of approved applicants to Ed Jackson,
Operations Training Instructor. Note that any examination waivers and application denials have
been addressed in separate correspondence.
The NRC has approved the subject examinations and hereby authorizes you to administer the
written examination in accordance with NUREG-1021, "Operator Licensing Examination
Standards for Power Reactors," Revision 9, Supplement 1, on August 4, 2014. The NRC staff
will administer the operating tests during the week of July 28, 2014. This examination has
undergone extensive review by my staff and representatives responsible for licensed operator
training at your facility. Based on this review, I have concluded that the examination meets the
guidelines of NUREG-1021 for content, operational, and discrimination validity. By
administering this examination, you also agree that it meets NUREG-1021 guidelines, and is
appropriate for measuring the qualifications of licensed operator applicants at your facility. If
you determine that this examination is not appropriate for licensing operators at your facility, do
not administer the examination and contact me at (817) 200-1159.
Please contact your Chief Examiner, Kelly Clayton, at (817) 200-1216, if you have any
questions or identify any errors or changes in the license level (RO or SRO) or type of
examination (partial or complete written examination and/or operating test) specified for each
applicant.
Sincerely,
/RA/
